I actually agree with your point and also Mr K's. The older boilers do seem to be more robust parts wise from experience but are far less energy efficient, so from a carbon saving POV then new boilers are the way to go . We got a condensor combi about 18 months ago and it's worked very well so far, but time will tell how much maintenance it needs in the future.
